You might find something to work with XMind (open format)
http://code.google.com/p/xmind3/wiki/XMindFileFormat
http://www.mind-mapping.org/interoperability-of-mind-mapping-software/XMIND.php

XMind is able to read (import) FreeMind, so there is some code of
interest there.

or, FreeMind itself
http://freemind.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/freemind/freemind/freemind.xsd?view=log
is the schema
If you get the source, there are several XSL transforms in
/freemind/accessories/ for things like html, openoffice, twiki, task
juggler etc.
